After calling on his 2020 Democratic opponents to reject money from insurance and drug companies, Sen. Bernie Sanders will return donations he received that violate that pledge, his campaign said
The pledge, announced on Wednesday, calls on 2020 campaigns to refuse"contributions over $200 from the PACs, lobbyists, or executives of health insurance or pharmaceutical companies," except for"rank-and-file workers employed by pharmaceutical giants," according to a campaign statement.
"As done previously, we will be donating any contribution that does not meet the parameters of the pledge to groups combating the health care crisis created by the insurance and pharmaceutical industries," campaign national press secretary Sarah Ford told CNN. "This pledge was launched yesterday with our full knowledge that some money may need to be returned," Ford added.
